Love Can't Happen
Grand Hotel the musical is based on Grand Hotel the movie. The lives and loves of a group of guests staying the night in a fancy Berlin hotel converge. It's a classic in cinema, and as a show it has some brilliant moments. David Carroll originated the role of the Baron and sang "Love Can't Happen". He died from AIDS-related complications trying to record the soundtrack. In fact, I believe he got sick at the studio and had to leave. One track remains, and wow. The man had a voice!
I didn't pick a specific scene from the show. I just wanted to pull in a nice character study and play with the idea of a rich hotel. I thought that perhaps the young valet could be impossibly in love with his mistress, but mostly I just liked the design. Still struggling with values and the like, here. The dogs are cute and the woman, tho wildly angled, would be fun to sculpt.
